Hydrotechnical devices, safety criterion, durability, reservoirs, emergency situationsAbstract
Hydrotechnical devices are complex engineering tools that use natural water resources for various purposes and are applied to eliminate the harmful and destructive effects of water. Although the hydrotechnical facilities built on and outside water bodies are used to protect the environment from the harmful effects of water, if their protection is not properly organized, the groundwork for the occurrence of more serious consequences - submergence and destructive floods is created. Natural water bodies - rivers, lakes, sea, etc. Being an integral element of the environment, it occupies one of the special places among natural resources due to its importance and areas of use. The water demand of people, production and all economic sectors is met at the expense of natural water bodies, that is, surface and underground water sources.
